DOW PERIODICALS.

Girl Review: Issues No. 1, 5, and 6. Girl Fotocade: Issue No. 6.

Chicago. Dow Periodicals, Inc. 1943, 1st Edition. Soft cover. 4 issues of this 'artist's models' magazine. Girl Revue and Girl Fotocade (Along with Girl Pagent) were essentially the same 6-per-year publication. 7 x 10 inch magazine with black and white artistic photos of nude women, certain hair airbrushed. No text except introductory paragraph regarding art. No date but 1940-1943 based on expiration date of a back issue offer in one. Good condition, with one 1/2" tear at top of spine on Revue #6, light rubbing on spines. Covers feature women from the waist up with colored-in lips and fingernails and banner above, 50 cents cover price. Issue #1 is assumed to be so by lack of number and no back issue offer. A light bit of a 'garage' scent, as copies of these were invariably stored there sometime in their existence. Good.

SCHNERINGER, KEN

Catalogues of Trade Catalogues offered by Ken Schneringer.184 issues

Woodstock (or Canton), Georgia. 1993, 1st Edition. Soft cover. A Large Group of Catalogs describing Trade Catalogues and certain other Paper Ephemera. (Formerly) offered for sale by Ken Schneringer, Woodstock Georgia, 184 issues." Dealer's priced lists of catalogs that were issued aprox. monthly through this era. no. 1-6. 8-119, 121-162, 164-187. Offset printed, side stapled paper wraps pamphlets, #43 was badly mangled by the post office and is missing some text. Others, Good-VG, expected mailing labels, occasional circled items. 24 pages each, about 175 trade catalogs described in each, mostly 1890-1940, and mostly from American firms, and some related ephemera are described, categorized and priced in each. Not illustrated. It is possible that some or all of the lacking issues were never offered. This set, describing and pricing about 32,000 items, would be a good start on a post-Romaine trade catalog bibliography. After Schneringer dissolved his business in 2005/6, the remaining 6,100 trade catalogs in his inventory were purchased for the collection of Ohio State University. This collection would presumably describe and price most of those and 5 times as many others. Woodstock (later Canton) GA. Kenneth Schneringer. 1993-2005. Very Good.
